About me
I am an experienced clinical psychologist passionate to work with clients struggling with childhood and adulthood traumas, issues that couples tend to have, and overall relationship challenges. I help individuals and couples to have better communication skills, manage their emotions in a more productive way, improve in their ability to tolerate their distress, and change patterns of behaviors that no longer serve them.
I will offer clients a safe, warm, and non-judgmental space to be vulnerable and open about what they struggle with. I know it will be hard at first to open up to a stranger, but I make it my priority that my individuals and couples first feel like we have rapport before delving into deeper issues. I believe that most things in life are relational based. Our relationships with others- parents, siblings, friends…and our relationship with ourselves. So, my approach will focus more on the relationship in your lives and the struggles you have as well as you self-confidence and self-judgements, for example.
